GS Credit Risk Summer Analyst Interview

Just got the call from GS HR that I've been selected for first round phone interviews next week for both Credit and Market Risk. I was curious what type of questions they will ask you. Any advice from people who have gone through the process would be awesome.

Questions I have been asked in Credit Risk interviews with other BBs (never interview for CR with Goldman): - What is Credit Risk - Why Credit Risk - What do you see the economy doing - What do you look at to assess a company's credit worthiness (always mentioned financial metrics as well as the industry, economy, and political environment (fear of expropriation? harmful legislation?)).

Besides that, just normal fit/behavioral stuff.

 

Got some friends interviewed at credit risk at GS, first round I heard is usually very behavioral with at most 3 three technical questions relevant to your previous working experience. Good luck!

Live like an artist and work like an analyst......
 

I just looked at your screen name and realized that you probably have OCR. No such luck for me. I'm going to apply online, and hopefully get a call.

I have this first round interview too next week. James - GS doesn't do Credit Risk OCR at my school so I applied online via GS Accelerated Interviews and got the interview. So they def look at online applications.

I did not know about that. Kicking myself. Can you please explain the accelerated process, and is the deadline for the Finance Division accelerated process over?

Thanks.

 

unfortunately the deadline for the accelerated process ended last month. So no one has any insight on the type of interview to expect? How technical might this be?
